Thank you. I found what is wrong. Gnus (of
emacs-unicode-2) writes a header line as this
;; -*- emacs-lisp; coding:utf-8-emacs;-*-
but it should be:
;; -*- mode:emacs-lisp; coding:utf-8-emacs;-*-
If you directly read that file, fix the header, and save it,
gnus should start working.
Anyay, I've just installed the attached change.
